A group of about 50 people broke into the offices of the Islamic Religious Community (IRC) in Skopje on Monday taking away the IRC’s official stamps. They formed a provisional council led by Skopje Mufti Ibrahim Shabani that will elect a new IRC head. In addition, a commission will carry out a financial audit of Reis Sulejman Rexhepi’s financial operations. Skopje Mufti Shabani said he would run the IRC “until peace and rule of law is restored in the Islamic Religious Community of Macedonia”.
